| ABSTRACT: | Orion Minerals NL (ASX/JSE: ORN) (Orion or Company) is pleased to announce that drilling in the Deep Sulphide Target at its Prieska Zinc-Copper (Prieska) Project in South Africa has intersected a wide zone of high grade mineralisation in an area where historic data shows mineralisation blocked out and accessed with preparatory development but not stoped. In addition, and significantly, a new discovery has been made along strike to the northwest of previously reported mineralisation, with a 14.50m massive sulphide intersection being returned which provides a new target to extend the zone of wide, high grade mineralisation. “We continue to be pleased with drilling and exploration results from the Prieska Project. While drilling within the confines of historically drilled mineralisation continues to verify the grade and width as reported, our exploratory drilling is encountering very encouraging extensions to known mineralisation”. Assays have been received for hole OCOD068 drilled with the objective of validating mineralisation recorded to be intact in an area of historical trial mining. Hole OCOD068 intersected a wide zone of high grade mineralisation in an area where mine plans show mineralisation to be blocked out and accessed with preparatory development but not stoped prior to the mine closing in 1991 (Figure 1 and 2). The results for OCOD068 are set out below | |
